The keyboard seems to go below the screen, that's why we see a black rectangle there. On my 1920x1200 screen, scaled to 960x600, it apparently ends up at y=750.
See attachment for the configure events. Case 1) is the black rectangle case. The values are all over the place. GdkEventConfigure doesn't agree with get_pos()/get_size() and neither are fully correct. At the moment I don't see how I could compensate for that in Onboard. AFAIKT the problem is with Gtk, not Onboard. It might be possible for unity-greeter to help, however. If the greater delays Onboard's launch until after unity-settings-daemon is done with setting the scaling factor, we get to Case 2) and see at least the half/quarter sized keyboard. If/when bug #1572331 is fixed it would hopefully go back to normal size. As the worst case, the DPI dependent scaling in u-s-d would have to be turned off until Gtk is ready for it. ** Attachment added: "onboard-configure-events.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-greeter/+bug/1562734/+attachment/4640799/+files/onboard-configure-events.txt ** Changed in: onboard Importance: Critical => Undecided -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1562734 Title: Onboard keyboard shows black box on login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/onboard/+bug/1562734/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
